"Klaatu barata nicto"
Talking about the miner's rescue effort, Chilean President Sebastian Pinera, said....
"When we Chileans set aside our legitimate differences and unify in a grand and noble cause, we are capable of great things."
What is it going to take for all of the word's citizens to work for a common goal of peace and prosperity?
The 1951 movie, "The Day The Earth Stood Still," and the remake, keep coming to mind.
President Ronald Reagan said in a Speech to the United Nations General Assembly, 42nd General Assembly
September 21, 1987:
"In our obsession with antagonisms of the moment, we often forget how much unites all the members of humanity. Perhaps we need some outside, universal threat to make us recognize this common bond. I occasionally think how quickly our differences worldwide would vanish if we were facing an alien threat from outside this world."
From a speech with President Mikhail Gorbachev, in 1988.
"I occasionally think how quickly our differences, worldwide, would vanish if we were facing an alien threat from outside this world."
He made almost the same comment on many occasions.
Makes me wonder.......
What if these guys knew somthing the general populace doesn't?
Maybe December 21st, 2012 is the day it happens....
What if?
